Synopsis

"Rubber Elastic Revolution" unveils the remarkable journey of natural latex, tracing its transformation from an obscure substance to an indispensable material shaping modern civilization. The book explores how indigenous populations cleverly utilized latex's unique properties long before the advent of modern science. A key turning point was Charles Goodyear's vulcanization process, which stabilized rubber and unlocked its potential for widespread industrial applications. The book highlights rubber's profound influence on transportation, medicine, and manufacturing during the Industrial Revolution, demonstrating its vital role in 19th and 20th-century economic history. By examining historical documents, scientific papers, and industry case studies, the book illustrates how rubber became a cornerstone of modern infrastructure. It begins with the origins of natural latex, progresses through the scientific breakthroughs of vulcanization, and culminates in an analysis of rubber's long-term consequences. This exploration of rubber's history uniquely emphasizes the interconnectedness of scientific innovation, technological development, and societal change. It acknowledges the environmental and economic controversies surrounding rubber production, offering a balanced perspective on this transformative material's impact.

    The US media has been tainted with Russian disinformation, but the more significant threat is how the Right has embraced the Russian model of the news media as a vehicle for propaganda. This could not have happened without Donald Trump, who has been aided and abetted by politicians and news outlets that favor persuasion over information. From his inauguration onwards, Trump has shown allegiance to the Kremlin propaganda playbook—he consistently denies reality, amplifies lies, vilifies the free media, and broadcasts disinformation. 
     
     
     
    Seeing Red breaks new ground in investigating the scope of Russian disinformation, arguing that key politicians and media outlets in the United States have facilitated the dissemination of Russian propaganda. From the 2020 elections to the Capitol Insurrection to the war in Ukraine, Sarah Oates and Gordon Neil Ramsay examine the penetration of key Kremlin strategic narratives that attempt to project Russian power, blame NATO for Russian aggression, and attack democracy via the US news. Despite knowledge of the risk and resourceful work on tracking down Russian propaganda in the United States, the problem of foreign disinformation continues to this day. As Oates and Ramsay argue, this is in part due to exploitation of the American tradition of free speech and the open nature of the US media system.

  • Stakeknife's Dirty War - The Inside Story of Scappaticci the IRA's Nutting Squad and the British Spooks Who Ran the War - cover

    Freddie Scappaticci was born in 1946 and raised in a deeply nationalist area of Belfast. When the Troubles broke out in 1969, he joined the Provisional IRA, where he quickly rose through the ranks, becoming commander of Belfast in 1984. 
     
    From the outside, Scappaticci appeared to be a dedicated volunteer, but inwardly, he had become disenchanted with the IRA and, in 1977, he started working for British intelligence. At the same time, he took up a leading role in a newly formed IRA Internal Security Unit (ISU), aka ‘The Nutting Squad’. He personally executed two suspected informers and condemned at least thirty-seven more to death. 
     
    Was he the serial killer that history portrays him? Undoubtedly. But it’s not that simple, because every time he passed the death penalty on an informer, he told his British intelligence handlers about the intended execution, giving them the opportunity to prevent the killing. 
     
    Did the tasking and co-ordinating group, the primary British intelligence organisation in Northern Ireland during the troubles, aid and abet the IRA in the mass-murder of British citizens? That is the question Richard O’Rawe poses in Stakeknife’s Dirty War. But O’Rawe goes further: he lays out a very compelling case that points to the TCGs running the IRA’s war from the mid-1980s to the 1994 ceasefire. Such was the British intelliegence penetration of the IRA, that Freddie Scappaticci, aka ‘Stakeknife’, was in control of all IRA operations in the Belfast Brigade area. This book will shock readers, and cause them to reevaluate everything they formerly held to be true about Stakeknife’s dirty war in Ireland.
